Is it possible to set the file version property to exe that was generated from 7zS.sfx? Apparently the default implementation is to mark the exe with 7zS.sfx.exe properties (see below)

Yes . you can change the icon and metadata of the generated exe file. To do this, you need to have a resource editor . I recommend using Resource Hacker ™ .

1. After downloading and installing (for both installer and portable options), launch the software and open the exe file that was created using 7z sfx.

2. Click the Release Notes tab in the tree on the left and change the required information.

3. Compile the script (F5) and save / save as a new exe file.
